Hey PH,
Great to be back again & thanks @__tosh for hunting us!
When we released Deta Space last year, we learned that people resonated with many ideas, but they wanted it to work with their existing stuff on the web.
So we took ideas into Deta Surf, a hybrid between browser, file manager, and AI assistant. It’s designed to put you at the center of everything that’s important to you, so you can get the most out of it.
Surf adds a few things on top of normal tabbed browsing.
💾 Personal storage with Stuff
You can add almost anything that’s important to you, straight into Surf. A Notion document, Tweet, YouTube video, image or PDF.
🪟 Unlimited Desktops
Surf’s core building concept is a “Context”, and every Context has it’s own desktop. Create different desktops for different projects, add your important stuff and link between them.
🦄 Universal Chat
Chat with all the stuff you encounter in Surf. Whether a tab, PDF, image, or entire context — Surf augments whatever it is and lets you verify everything with citations.
You can read more about it in the Verge here: https://www.theverge.com/2024/12...
We’re in alpha, but we’ll be letting a lot of the PH audience in today to give it a spin. Let us know what you think!

Who hunted Deta Surf?
Deta Surf was hunted by Thomas Schranz ⛄️. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
